    Hey mate, thanks for the video. Have been loving my E52. Just want to share that I have the V6 3.7L engine and am averaging 8L per 100km on U98 fuel with 4 kids and suburban driving. Just purchased myself an Oztrail 15L Console Fridge/Freezer to see if I can upgrade the centre console. Happy driving.

    If you are after a van sized car the E52 is not for you.
    I have both E51 & E52. As a people carrier the E51 is much more versatile and the additional head room makes it a much better day out vehicle.
    For me the only advantage of the E52 over the E51 is the driving dynamics, its generally just more modern.
    If I had to have only 1 it would definitely be the E51.

      I have an E51 and was looking to upgrade due to age of vehicle 2004 but I’m finding the newer models are just not impressing me.

      So you're saying if I get the OEM steering wheel controls, then I'll be able to use cruise control? Because I have the standard steering wheel no buttons at all.

    Great video thanks. I am currently looking into this van for my family. Got a couple of questions. Do you reckon 2.5l has enough power to drive? does it have a spare wheel/tyre?

    • @LifeElgrand
      @LifeElgrand  9 месяцев назад

      No spare wheel, just a repair kit and air pump that works on the 12v socket in front or back of the car.
      As for power, the 2.5 is enough. I would say if you plan on driving it fully loaded all the time the 3.5 would probably be better, however the petrol cost will be substantially higher, also you need to run the 3.5 on 98 octane fuel and we all know that costs more too. It just depends what is important to you as the diver/owner.

      I believe it is possible, but not a clip in and out situation. Some permanent modifications need to be done to fit them. Mine has no fixing points for 3rd row.

      I think there would be a remote control for the rear screen units. It may be hiding some place in the car, look in the back pockets on the front seats. Mine does not have any rear screens so I don't know the answer sorry 😐

  • @staceygodfrey1231
    @staceygodfrey1231 8 месяцев назад +1

    Dont know if i agree that the 4 cyl is the better choice over the 3.5l. I have worked on the 4cyl nissan lump in Xtrails and Dualis/quasquai and they are notorious for burning oil and coolant/head gaskets. If you are doing low kms might be better to take the hit on fuel costs in the long run.

    Hi
    I have Mitsubishi Shogun mk4(Pajero) but need something bigger to transport garden ornaments every weekend. I was thinking about van or Nissan Elgrand. Can you take seats out and use it as a van?

    • @LifeElgrand
      @LifeElgrand  Месяц назад

      This model elgrand does not have the option to remove the seats. It can be done but not just an easy job, it requires tools and time. The e51 elgrand is best for this as the rear seats can be removed much easier.

      There some videos on RUclips that do explain it.
